- SGI misc Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
- This is one of the Silicon Graphics FAQ series, which consists of:
-
- SGI admin FAQ - IRIX system administration
- SGI apps FAQ - Applications and miscellaneous programming
- SGI audio FAQ - Audio applications and programming
- SGI graphics FAQ - Graphics and user environment customization
- SGI hardware FAQ - Hardware
- SGI impressario FAQ - IRIS Impressario
- SGI inventor FAQ - IRIS Inventor
- SGI misc FAQ - Introduction & miscellaneous information
- SGI movie FAQ - Movies
- SGI performer FAQ - IRIS Performer
- SGI pointer FAQ - Pointer to the other FAQs
-
- Read the misc FAQ for information about the FAQs themselves. Each FAQ
- is posted to comp.sys.sgi.misc and to the news.answers and comp.answers
- newsgroups (whose purpose is to store FAQs) twice per month. If you
- can't find one of the FAQs with your news program, you can get it by
- anonymous FTP from one of these sites:
-
- viz.tamu.edu:/pub/sgi/faq/
- rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/usenet/news.answers/sgi/faq/
- ftp.uu.net:/usenet/news.answers/sgi/faq/
-
- Note that rtfm.mit.edu is home to many other FAQs and informational
- documents, and is a good place to look if you can't find an answer here.
- If you can't use FTP, send mail to mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu with the
- word 'help' on a line by itself in the text, and it will send you a
- document describing how to get files from rtfm.mit.edu by mail. Send the
- command 'send usenet/news.answers/sgi/faq/misc' to get the SGI misc FAQ,
- and similarly for the other FAQs. Finally, the FAQs are on the World
- Wide Web at
-
- http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/sgi/top.html
-
- The SGI FAQs are freely distributable and we encourage wide circulation.
- You MUST keep the FAQs intact, including headers and this notice. The
- contents are accurate as far as we know, but the usual disclaimers
- apply. (In particular, copies of the SGI FAQs published on paper or
- CD-ROM are certain to be out of date!) Please send additions and changes
- to sgi-faq@viz.tamu.edu.

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Subject: -1- How can I quickly find the information I want in the SGI
- FAQs?
- Date: 14 Nov 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- - The FAQs follow the RFC1153 recommendations for message digests and
- thus can be viewed easily with newsreaders that understand message
- digests.
-
- - Each question has a Subject: line, so you can easily step through
- the answers with rn's ^G command.
-
- - Each question is marked with a "dash number dash" so that you can
- find any answer with a simple search pattern.
-
- - Questions marked with a '+' in the subject line are new this
- posting; those marked with a '!' have significant new content since
- the last posting. Similarly, '+' and '!' in the left margin mark
- added or changed text. Questions marked with a '-' in the subject
- line will be removed in the next edition or so unless someone
- convinces us otherwise.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -2- How do the FAQs support the World Wide Web?
- Date: 05 May 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- Tom Fine <fine@cis.ohio-state.edu> runs a service which converts FAQs
- to hypertext (HTML). A list of the converted FAQs is at
-
- http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/top.html
-
- and the SGI FAQs are at
-
- http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/sgi/top.html
-
- You can view them with any World Wide Web browser, probably Mosaic
- (which you can get from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu:/Web/Mosaic/), or, for text
- terminals, Lynx (at ftp2.cc.ukans.edu:/pub/WWW/lynx/).
-
- Some types of references in the SGI FAQs are in particular formats so
- they will be recognized and turned into links to other documents:
-
- - References to FTP sites are in rcp(1)-like format
- ('site:/path/file'). If you're not using a WWW browser, just do 'ftp
- site', 'cd /path' and 'get file' as usual to get a file. References
- to directories end with slashes so you know what you're getting
- into. References to root directories (e.g. 'ftp.uu.net:/') do not
- work; this is a known bug. Some FTP servers are not
- Mosaic-compatible; just use 'ftp'.
-
- - Other Internet services are in URL format
- ('protocol://site/path/file'). If you're reading the SGI FAQs as
- plain text, you can still paste URLs into your browser.
-
- - Manpages look like 'foo(1)' and Internet RFCs look like 'RFC####'.
- Beware: Tom Fine is a Sun person, so the manpages are for SunOS.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -3- With what version(s) of IRIX do the SGI FAQs deal?
- Date: 13 Nov 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- Unless otherwise specified, the FAQs discuss IRIX 5.2. A few entries
- deal with IRIX 3.x and many deal with IRIX 4.0.5, and they should all
- say so. Versions of IRIX 4 before 4.0.5 and IRIX 5 before 5.2 are
- rarely discussed because everyone should have upgraded by now. The
- FAQs do not discuss IRIX 6.0 yet at all.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -4- What about material which doesn't fit in the FAQs?
- Date: 10 Dec 93 00:00:01 EST
-
- Entries in the FAQs should be relatively short and genuinely
- "frequently asked". Some material which is of less general interest
- or which is too long is archived at viz.tamu.edu:/pub/sgi/. If
- information you're looking for isn't in the FAQs, look there. The
- FAQs may direct you there as well. You can submit material to that
- archive just as you can an FAQ: mail it to sgi-faq@viz.tamu.edu, or
- put it in viz.tamu.edu:/incoming/ and let us know by mail.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -5- What are the comp.sys.sgi.* newsgroups?
- Date: 18 Aug 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- The active SGI newsgroups are
-
- comp.sys.sgi.announce Announcements for the SGI community.
- (Moderated)
- comp.sys.sgi.admin System administration on Silicon Graphics'
- Irises.
- comp.sys.sgi.apps Applications which run on the Iris.
- comp.sys.sgi.audio Audio on SGI systems.
- comp.sys.sgi.bugs Bugs found in the IRIX operating system.
- comp.sys.sgi.graphics Graphics packages and issues on SGI machines.
- comp.sys.sgi.hardware Base systems and peripherals for Iris
- computers.
- comp.sys.sgi.misc General discussion about SGI's machines.
-
- The original comp.sys.sgi newsgroup is obsolete. Please don't post to
- it, so the rest of us won't miss anything.
-
- To submit an article for posting in comp.sys.sgi.announce, send mail
- to Matthew Wicks at sgi-announce-request@dcdmjw.fnal.gov.
-
- Each of these newsgroups has a corresponding mailing-list; see
- below.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -6- Are the SGI newsgroups archived?
- Date: 04 Jun 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- The SGI newsgroups are archived in their entirety, albeit in a
- difficult-to-handle form, in ftp.sgi.com:/comp.sys.sgi/.
- comp.sys.mips is likewise archived in ftp.sgi.com:/comp.sys.mips/.
-
- Harry Mangalam <mangalam@uci.edu> makes the same newsgroups
- available, and easily searchable, via WAIS. There is a separate WAIS
- source for each of the current SGI newsgroups and comp.sys.mips as
- well as the defunct newsgroup comp.sys.sgi. If you're familiar with
- WAIS, just search the directory-of-servers for "sgi" or "mips" to get
- all the source descriptions. If you use Mosaic, open the URL
- 'wais://hornet.mmg.uci.edu/comp.sys.sgi.misc' to search
- comp.sys.sgi.misc, and similarly for the other archived newsgroups.
-
- Thanks to these services, just posting something goes a long way
- toward making it available to everyone, even after it expires.
- Another good reason to summarize the answers to your question for the
- group!
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -7- What are some related newsgroups?
- Date: 10 Nov 94 00:00:01 EST

- created.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -8- What are the comp.sys.sgi.* mailing lists?
- Date: 18 Aug 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- The SGI newsgroups are gatewayed to mailing lists for those who can't
- get news (or who just prefer mail). To subscribe or unsubscribe, send
- mail to info-iris-request@brl.mil (Chuck Kennedy, aka

-
- Subject: -12- What number do I call for information about SGI
- products?
- Date: 22 Jan 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- For product information, call SGI Direct at
-
- US & Canada: 1-800-800-SGI1 (1-800-800-7441)
- France: 05 244 244
- Germany: 0130 811 011
- U.K.: 0800 440 440
-
- or your local SGI sales office.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -13- What number do I call for technical support from SGI?
- Date: 29 Aug 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- To reach SGI's Technical Assistance Center (TAC) in North America,
- call 1-800-800-4SGI (1-800-800-4744). Elsewhere, call your local
- sales office (see the previous question).
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -14- What about SGI-related publications?
- Date: 02 May 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- SGI publishes several periodicals. Every SGI owner should get Iris
- Universe (glossy and general) for free; if you don't, call SGI
- Direct. Everyone on a support contract should get Pipeline (very
- useful technical notes); Pipeline's address is pipeline@sgi.com.
- Registered developers get another set of publications; ask
- devprogram@sgi.com about getting registered.
-
- There is one independent SGI-related publication, Silicon Graphics
- World. Contact
-
- PCI Publishing
- 12416 Hymeadow Drive
- Austin, TX 78750-1896 USA
- 512-250-9023 (voice)
- 512-331-3900 (fax)
- sgi@pcinews.lonestar.org
-
- Subscription rates are $45/year in the US and $75 elsewhere. SG
- World is a monthly tabloid. It has articles, product reviews and lots
- of SGI- specific advertising. It isn't a technical publication.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -15- What is the current release of ...
- Date: 07 May 93 00:00:01 EST
-
- This changes quite often. The best way to get up-to-date information
- about SGI products is to call SGI Direct; see above.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: ! -16- What is the current release of IRIX for my machine?
- Date: 11 Dec 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- ! The current release of IRIX for all 32-bit systems is IRIX 5.2. There
- ! is a general release of IRIX 5.2, and there are system-specific
- ! releases for Indy, Onyx Extreme and Challenge S systems.
-
- ! Everyone for whom IRIX 5.2 is the current release should receive IRIX
- ! 5.3 in the next several months; it will then become the current
- ! release.
-
- ! The current release of IRIX for Power Challenge and Power Onyx systems
- ! and anything with an IP21 upgrade is IRIX 6.0.
-
- ! The Nov/Dec 94 Pipeline has an exhaustive table of IRIXes from 3.3 to
- ! 6.0. It does not include IRIX 5.x where x > 2.
-
- If you don't know what release of IRIX you're running, see the SGI
- admin FAQ.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -17- Can I get a list of known bugs?
- Date: 15 Jun 93 00:00:01 EST
-
- Yes. In addition to known bugs that are documented in Product
- Release Notes, the IRIS InSight Support Library includes a collection
- of customer reported software, document problems, and requests for
- enhancements in the Software Status Update (SSU) binder. The IRIS
- InSight Subscription Service (SC4-INS-2.0) is an annually renewed
- service which can be purchased from SGI.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -18- What's the best newsgroup in which to complain to SGI?
- Date: 04 Jun 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- It depends on what you're complaining about. Most of the SGI
- employees who read the SGI newsgroups are engineers and similar
- useful people, not evil marketing policy-setters. If you feel, for
- example, that NFS or Documenter's Workbench should be a standard part
- of IRIX, don't post; call your sales rep and yell at them.
-
- However, software bugs are better newsgroup material: an SGI person
- may well see your message and fix the bug then and there.
- Nonetheless, don't depend on it. Call the TAC and tell them too.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -19- Wouldn't Nextstep be great on SGIs?
- Date: 05 Jan 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- Possibly. If Next ported Nextstep to IRIX (and several SGI employees
- have made it clear that it is up to Next, not SGI, to do so) the
- question might be worth discussing. That nonwithstanding, Next
- zealots have flogged Nextstep around the SGI newsgroups many times.
- They haven't convinced the command-line diehards that the Next way is
- better or vice versa. Please don't try it yourself.
-
- ------------------------------
-
- Subject: -20- Can I run Windows NT on my Indigo or Indy?
- Date: 18 Jan 94 00:00:01 EST
-
- No. SGI can, but only on Indigos with special hardware and software
- modifications and only for demos and porting. There are no known
- plans to provide NT on SGI workstations. Also, note that most
- comp.sys.sgi.* readers will answer this question "Why would you want
- to?".
-
- MTI, aka MIPS, an SGI subsidiary, does make NT-compatible machines.
- Try comp.sys.mips.
